A post-doctoral position is available for highly motivated candidates to join a research group interested in investigating molecular mechanisms underlying epigenetic regulation and inheritance, and the broad area of chromatin biology. Projects will involve structure determination of macromolecular complexes by X-ray crystallography and/or NMR spectroscopy, and related biochemical characterizations. Applicants should hold a PhD degree and have significant experience in molecular cloning, protein production and X-ray crystallography. Additional background in NMR spectroscopy and enzymatic assay is considered a plus but not essential. The expected starting date is September 1st, 2012 or sooner. Interested applicants should send curriculum vitae, a summary of past research experience and accomplishments, and contact information of two or three references to Jikui Song, Ph.D. Department of Biochemistry, University of California, Riverside, CA 92521 (Email: songlab...@gmail.edu). As one of the major research univerisities in California, UCR houses well equipped structural biology facilities. Riverside is located near to big cities such as Los Angeles, San Diego and Las Vegas. Such an environment allows one to have a good balance of life and science here. More information can be found in http://biochemistry.ucr.edu/faculty/song/song.html.
